X hoping to become the "everything app", more like a receptacle of filth and distrust. Of course, ad holding company Stagwell, along with Code and Theory is helping Elon promote it. These mercenaries have no soul, no morals and no integrity.

The reality is that Salesmanship is the differentiation between the two parties.
The Dems couldn't sell dollar bills for 50c
